@lettosprey With the move itself; so far. Other tangential things have been a little wibbly and delayed.

It leaves a mark on your soul, meeting a god. Most people never meet one before they die. A few saints, prophets, and other holies have more than one mark.

The witch couldn't help stare with her second sight.

"You've met them all? Many times?"

Her friend shrugged. "They say I'm a good listener."

I'm watching this video and imagining Rick yelling this at Morty, sorta like this --

You stab it Morty, you stab the fascism or you'll die - you'll die Morty! It's like a cancer!
I don't care what flavour you want your democracy to be, Morty! It's not ice cream, vanilla or chocolate, it's freedom or fascism!'

It's well worth a watch even if you're not a R&M fan.

Rick and Morty Creator Dan Harmon goes on anti Fascist rant.
Fuck nazi’s. Fuck fascists.

"Love" stories are about wanting sex. Couldn't care less.

Friendship stories are about actual love.

I've seen several mentions of Megabonk and since it's apparently in my Steam family library I thought I'd try it out. I have no idea what's going on or what to do or anything. Maybe I'm getting too old for new types of games? Or maybe it's just not a kind of game I'm used to, I dunno.

Absolutely no tutorial of any kind, as far as I can see. I hate "character creation" stuff, just let me start the game with a default setup, as *obviously* I won't have a clue what to select until I've played the game a bit and seen what might be useful. Stupid amounts of monsters which apparently all get auto-killed by the game, so I think I just ignore them? Constant pop-ups asking me to select upgrades from options I'm not interested in and know nothing about (see above re character creation) and which keep interupting me trying to get used to the controls and figure out what's going on.

After 7 minutes of play, according to Steam, I've managed to recognise some of the things that trigger pop-ups, so I can avoid them and wander around the map a bit to try to figure out what I'm meant to be doing. I don't see anything of interest, so I think that's it for that game.

Good thing we don't all like the same kinds of games.

I am so bad at finishing projects. They get to 90% and I just… don't finish them off. I have a "new" email filter server that I set up, installed and tweaked postfix, clamav, spamd etc on, hacked a small perl smtp proxy to glue everything together the way I wanted it, so it can be placed transparently in front of any other SMTP server and it'll never accept-then-bounce, and it's been running, mostly-successfully filtering out spam on a few non-critical domains for many years now, and I *still* haven't got it finished enough to be willing to put all my and my customers' domains through it. So long, in fact, that it's getting a bit out of date.

Same with my web frontend with my own scriptage doing clever automated certificate and OCSP management. Same with my little content-DNS server CDN with configurable automated DNSSEC signing. Same with my "new" BGP routers that were supposed to have replaced the old BGP routers by now. Same with so many other things. Urgh. I'm just so tired of everything, probably because the projects I'm trying to get around to now are the same ones I've been trying to get around to for years. And because I'm tired and fed up with it all, I don't get on with them.

If I could only spend a bit of time and get these things finished enough to be willing to migrate everything onto them I'd be happy to advertise to everyone I know that I can offer this stuff and see if I can get customers in to actually use the things I've spent so much time on. But I let perfect be the enemy of good so much of the time. I ought to just tell everyone I can host everything anyway and try to deal with that lacking 10% as and when needed rather than the other way round. The stuff I have built to the 90% point has generally been pretty reliable after all, even if I don't consider it fully production ready.

I do hate myself sometimes.

I think this might be a common problem for some people. I don't think I ever really consider anything finished, or at least not many things. There is always something to make it better, and as someone who knows it could, that's therefore not good enough.

But often it seems it is. I've been trying to accept things that works and modify them as requirements crop up. It doesn't always work, but I think it's helped. I think that's what you're getting at in your third paragraph, so I'd say it's worth a try. It's a difficult mindset to change. So maybe pick one thing and see how that goes; you might be pleasantly surprised.

There's a weird tension in furry comms. Sometimes people want to see themselves more in their fursona by having them do something they do IRL - often (the best parts of) their job or hobby, maybe even a particular event they want to remember. Sometimes it's the opposite: they want to see their fursona doing things they've never done, maybe fantasies like being a colonist on an alien world or a superhero, or activities that are possible and they want to do but haven't experienced for real.

I wonder if there's some balance there: the former kind helps you to identify as your fursona, because you remember being in the situation they're in, like seeing yourself in a photo; while the latter kind makes your fursona into someone you would like to be.

In some ways, inserting your character into a video game is the best of both worlds. They're doing something that you've probably spent a lot of time "doing" - but at the same time, something you've only fantasized about doing, more fun and interesting than your real life.

It's also weird how this is a lot more normal and accepted in furry. Anywhere else, it's fine to commission a portrait of you doing your job or maybe even your hobby, but getting a portrait of yourself climbing a mountain, being an astronaut, or being a superhero (if you haven't done those things) is sad and maybe creepy, even in this age where you can just get a computer to do it for you.

I guess what I'm saying is, if you've ever daydreamed about doing something fantastic, and you think it would be inspiring to see that daydream in a picture you can put on the wall, find yourself a furry artist.

So apparently Trump's been making noises about annexing Greenland now? (I haven't been following the news.) One wonders when the rest of the world will start to actually stand up to him. I suspect it's like this:

[…] apologetic statesmen of a compromising kind
Such as — What d'ye call him — Thing'em-bob, and likewise — Never-mind
And 'St— 'st— 'st— and What's-his-name, and also You-know-who —
The task of filling up the blanks I'd rather leave to you
But it really doesn't matter whom you put upon the list
For they'd none of 'em be missed — they'd none of 'em be missed!

My aunt's visiting. She and my dad are watching The Mikado.

There are definitely a good number of politicians nowadays who would benefit from being on the list. They'd none of them be missed.

They'd none of them be missed.
